Detecting sensor
[1]: Front view camera, [2]: Front radar
Refer to the picture above for the detailed location of the detecting sensors.
-
Never disassemble the detecting sensor or sensor assembly, or cause any damage to it.
-
If the detecting sensor has been replaced or repaired, have the vehicle inspected by a professional workshop. Kia recommends that you visit an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
-
Never install any accessories or stickers on the front windscreen, or tint the front windscreen.
-
Pay extreme caution to keep the front view camera dry.
-
Never place any reflective objects (for example, white paper, mirror) over the dashboard.
-
Do not apply license plate frame or objects, such as a bumper sticker, film or a bumper guard, near the front radar cover.
-
Always keep the front radar and cover clean and free of dirt and debris. Use only a soft cloth to wash the vehicle. Do not spray pressurized water directly on the sensor or sensor cover.
-
If the radar or around the radar has been damaged or impacted in any way, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not properly operate even though a warning message does not appear on the cluster. In this case, have the vehicle inspected by a professional workshop. Kia recommends that you visit an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
-
The genuine Kia front radar sensor covers are parts with quality and performance ensured. If arbitrarily applying paint on or changing the cover, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not function properly. Use only Kia Genuine Parts or those of an equivalent standard with proven quality and performance to repair or replace the radar sensor covers.
-
Installing a trailer, carrier or other equipment adversely affect the detecting performance of the rear corner radar, or temporarily limit Forward Collision-Avoidance.
